Days of our Lives comings and goings for next week reveal Gabi Hernandez (Camila Banus) and three others return while one son of Salem exits. Check out who’s in and who’s out at the NBC soap opera next week.

DOOL casting updates start with the one big exit. Joey Johnson (James Lastovic) leaves town as he’s made post-prison plans. It turns out Joey’s been talking to his sister, Stephanie Johnson (Shelley Hennig), who lives in Seattle.

Days of our Lives comings and goings recall that many young men in Salem popped up only to take their exit. JJ Deveraux (Casey Moss) was in and out recently, as was recast Theo Carver (Cameron Johnson). Now, Joey follows suit.

For a few years, no, on Days of our Lives, Joey Johnson rotted in prison, convicted of killing Ava Vitali (Tamara Braun). Now that Ava’s alive, Joey’s free to live his life. Now, Joey Johnson decided to live far from his hometown on DOOL.

Gabi Hernandez & Vivian Alamain Back to DOOL Ins and Outs

Two big ins coming soon to Days of our Lives are Gabi Hernandez and Vivian Alamain (recast Linda Dano). Both Gabi and Viv’s returns tie to Jake Lambert (Brandon Barash). Recall, Gabi turned up, saw Jake was dating Kate Roberts (Lauren Koslow), and left in a huff.

Now, Days of our Lives spoilers explain that Gabi Hernandez had time to think while visiting her daughter. Gabi wants to yank her man Jake away from cougar Kate. Watch as Gabi Hernandez comes back just as Kate goes public with Jake and takes the next step in their relationship.

While Jake has feelings for Kate, he’s smitten with Gabi, remind Days of our Lives spoilers. So, it seems like his older girlfriend’s about to be shown the door once Gani Hernandez comes back. Gabi’s in Salem to ring in the New Year.
